The Vinnie Vincent Invasion’s Official Facebook has posted two messages,reportedly from Vinnie Vincent himself, regarding new music from the Vinnie Vincent Invasion. You can see both posts below:
I’m Working for a CHRISTMAS RELEASE. Many fans have been waiting so patiently for VVI music to be released. I’m about ready to meet the releases that have been so desired by the VV faithful. Keep watching for announcements… A Christmas release is imminent. Each disc will be a plain disc plain sleeve very limited collection piece, handwritten signed titled and numbered in my handwriting to each person..these are private releases. Worldwide availability of 500 pieces only. Once they are spoken for, there will be no more.
I’ve been informed there are numerous pirating entities watching and waiting like a hawk to seize whatever I release and bootleg it.
To protect my creation, Each disc will be $300 each, signed as a collection piece. Once All 500 pieces are purchased through PayPal, they will bulk ship.
This protects premature pirating. Credit card/ pp purchases are protected.
if the fan support is there, this is what to expect the price will be for these private recording collection pieces. There is a bank vault of recordings i have been preparing for release. The time is almost here.
I understand the bitching, the moaning, the whining about price, but you must also understand that my situation is as such that my music is so desired that it will be targeted and taken from me immediately, which I cannot/will not allow.
I wish it was not this way, but I’m honored that it is..
It’s a double-edged sword for me, but I sincerely hope that when you think it through you will understand the dilemma I face… VV
My love to every member of the VV / VVI family.

TO MY VVI FAMILY,
this message was a reply to Kerry, but it is also appropriate as a message to all VVI / VV fans
Thank you for your excitement and support. The music about to be released has been a long time in the making. If the fan support is there, 2026 will be the VVI / VV year of music releases. I don’t have a record label because I’m simply not interested in going that direction any longer. I’ve been on labels and trying to get your royalties is nothing short of a nightmare and they end up owning you. And it ends in court one way or another. Unless it was an offer I could not refuse … Never never ever again.
This first VVI release will give me a strong idea of the fan support and how far it reaches. It is a pure collector disc. something that someone will eventually be offered on eBay for $1000-$2000 and it will sell.
I disconnected the comments because of the whining bitching immature “I want it for free babies.” it’s just too tiresome to deal with this type of imbecile who still unfortunately thinks that someone owes them something for free. Nobody owes them anything. especially me.
if they want my music they can pay for it or wait a long time before they can get it bootlegged.
Unfortunately I’m one of the few artists who don’t pander. it takes truthful words and that truth is I get paid first. That’s the nature of being an artist. Getting paid for your work. Meaning if somebody does bootleg and pirate my work, which I have 100% confirmation they will, I have received the fruits of my labor before they had a chance to rip me off. and I’m not going to let that happen. So again it is about fan support. $300 per song per disc for the VVI Masters is very much in line for this very rare collection piece which is signed and numbered on a 500 units pressing. These are Masters recordings no one has heard. I know what’s out there and trust me nobody’s heard any of this except for me. I humbly Thank you for being here. your voice and excitement is very much appreciated. And your support is so meaningful to me. Many of you waited, and stood behind me with faith and loyalty. I thank you all, I appreciate you and I love you all. I am humbled by your presence VINNIE VINCENT
